Wakakirri Primary School Awards Night:
Friday, 8 September 2023 at 7.15pm

The Wakakirri Story-Dance Festival is a national program that helps schools develop student engagement and wellbeing through participation in the performing arts.  Schools participate by creating Story-Dances which they perform in live theatres in capital cities and selected regional areas around Australia. Schools in remote and regional areas can participate via Wakakirri Video.

Schools’ performances are inspired by the Wakakirri ethos ‘great stories inspire change’. Environmental, social, cultural, health, historical & reconciliation stories are all popular themes. Each year hundreds of schools across Australia create and perform Story-Dances for Wakakirri that reflect students’ thoughts, ideas and aspirations.

Wakakirri is open to Primary & Secondary schools, Dance schools and Community groups.  Does your school have a story to tell? It’s time to get involved!


Duration: Approximately 105 minutes, no interval

Wheelchair spaces are available, subject to booking. Please make your booking via phone on 9243 9191 to reserve a wheelchair designated spot.
